Verse 1:
E                         G
  I’ve seen a person go to shows and
 raise a lighter app
F#
   But if you’re at my concert 
please don’t ever try that crap
E             G
    Let’s set fire to the heavens
         F#
Turn the motherfucking speakers to 
11, this is Spinal Tap
E                            G
  The future might defeat me,  the 
internet can eat me
F#                              A
  It really tastes like chicken when
 I bite the hand that feeds me
E           G                     
  And I say me me, me me, play my 
F#
CD, CD

Yes indeedy deedy
      E
We be greedy
         G
And it’s tragic that we yawn
       F#
We got every gadget but don’t care 
there’s magic in our palm
E                                 
  ‘Cause it’s been getting so hot,  
G
I can feel the slow rot
F#                                
  But let’s not die before we get 
             E
to fuck a robot
           G                     
Because we all need something to 
F#                     A         
live for, something to live for, 
             E
something to live for
   G                     F#
We all need something to live for, 
something to live for

 Verse 2:
E                             G
  There was a time before the pot 
really got strong
F#
  Before the hippies got jobs 
talking long, long
E                           
  Before the people talked in 
  G
English out in Hong Kong
F#
  Before the holy Dalai Lama had a 
dot com
E                  G

God’s mom

 which to drop bombs
E
  Before the war crimes
G
  The rich and poor times
F#
  I’m talking in the land before The
 Land Before Time
E                              G
  But then the planet lost its baby 
fat and got crazy
F#
  And we’ve been acting like some 
fraidy-cats a lot lately
E                         
  Something’ll kill us like 
     G
cigarettes or the commies maybe
F#
  Or maybe AIDS or scabies, rabies 
or zombie babies
E                G               
  Even the KGB, pray we be free 
         F#
from ADD, wade in and bathe in Hades
   A
No army or Navy’s saving me
E                           
  And I can’t tell our little 
  G
victories from epic fails
F#
  It’s either heaven or hell and I 
can’t make heads or tails


 Bridge:
E
  Are we useless?
G
  No excuses
F#
  We took the peace sign, reduced it
 to deuces
E
  Are we useless?
G
  No excuses
F#
  We took the peace sign, reduced it
 to deuces
E                           G
  We took the peace sign, reduced it
 to deuces
F#                         A
  So raise your peace sign, if 
you’re not useless
E                       G
  Raise your peace sign, no excuses
F#
  We took the peace sign, reduced it
 to deuces
